The Kerala government will formally submit its objections to the University Grants Commission’s (UGC) draft Learning Outcomes-based Curriculum Framework (LOCF), which it views as a “deliberate attempt to impose Hindutva ideology on students”.

The Kerala State Higher Education Council (KSHEC) has been entrusted with framing the State’s response. The Executive Body of the government’s policy think-tank will convene on Tuesday (August 26, 2025) to review the draft model curriculum and establish a committee for a comprehensive evaluation, said council vice-chairperson Rajan Gurukkal.
